Hi,

Nice template. Like the gifs. Smile

Since it's a basic eBay template, you'll need to add the appropriate Auctiva tags for the description, etc., so their code-builder can add that info from the one-page lister. I'm guessing that might have something to do with the error message. If not, exactly what is the text of the error your getting?

Hi,

Yep, that's the typical message for not adding one (and only one) of those two tags to the template.

The template does have built-in instructions on how to add elements. They used comments, e.g. <!-- This is a comment! -->

For the description section tag, you'd add [DESCRIPTION]. The one-page lister would then locate and use that tag to add your description text to the listing. You add the appropriate tags, just as I've done the description tag for example at practiceboard: http://www.practiceboard.com/?9924933

Hi, Thanks, I finally figured it out! Auctiva should really try to produce a good tutorial on buying a template off Ebay and making it a custom template on Auctiva. It wasn't that difficult for me to figure out but for someone a little more clueless it could definately get frustrating. I'm going to write up a good tutorial for my friend who bought these templates.
